speedl (Auto Mode)

It is an asynchronous type motion command and executes the next command at the same time as the motion starts. This function performs Cartesian velocity control, following the most recent target TCP (Tool Center Point) velocity within the maximum speed and acceleration constraints of consecutive commands.

Also, this API operates only in Auto (Run) mode. It is not available in Manual (Teach) mode.

Parameter

Parameter Name

Data Type

Description

fTargetVel

float[6]

Target TCP velocity for six Cartesian axes [X, Y, Z, Rx, Ry, Rz].

fTargetAcc

float[2]

Translational and rotational acceleration [mm/s², deg/s²].

fTargetTime

float

0.0f

Command duration [sec]. Automatically adjusted if infeasible.

Return

Value

Description

0

Failed

1

Success

Example

#include "DRFLEx.h"
using namespace DRAFramework;

int main() {
    CDRFLEx drfl;
    // Preconditions: Connected, servo ON, Auto mode active

    // Define linear velocity and acceleration in Cartesian space
    float jvel[6] = {10.f, 10.f, 10.f, 10.f, 10.f, 10.f};
    float jacc[2] = {20.f, 20.f};

    // Execute TCP velocity control
    drfl.speedl(jvel, jacc, -10000.f);

    return 0;
}

Note

  • If fTargetTime is entered but cannot be maintained due to the maximum speed or acceleration condition, it automatically adjusts and displays a notification message.

  • For safety, if no new speedl command is transmitted within 0.1 seconds during motion, the controller raises an error and stops motion.

  • speedl is not linked with the change_operation_speed() function.

  • It is also not linked with force/stiffness control commands.

  • Recommended for smooth Cartesian velocity control, real-time motion streaming, or external controller synchronization.
